One man was the main difference.
Leinster just edged Munster, 16-13, in what was an extremely tight Guinness Pro12 game, with the difference-maker being that man again, Johnny Sexton.
It was a game for the out halves, with Sexton’s converted try and three penalties only just outdoing Johnny Holland’s converted try and and two penalties for Munster.
It was a controversial game, and here’s how Twitter reacted.
Great game !!! So close #LEINvMUN

Genuinely. I'd love to hear why Johnny Holland went off. Anyone? Injured? Seems silly otherwise. @Munsterrugby @MRSC16 #LEINvMUN

Referee was also terrible. Several infringements on both sides that he didn't bother dealing with. Commentators noticed it too. #LEINvMUN

His AR has to help him out there…

Great patience… Phases

He hasn't been perfect today, but this is a very encouraging performance from Holland #LEINvMUN

Munster notably direct with the ball in contract to Leinster. Simple carries looking for that gainline. #LEINvMUN

Zebo lucky not to concede penalty there. Leinster not one bit happy.

Some absolutely brilliant rucking from Munster in that passage of one-out attack.

Shoulder injury for Zebo ?#LEINvMUN

Munster's maul very good there. Could win it for them now from the corner. Huge moments in the Pro12 season here…
